Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer delivered a major address on the rise of antisemitism in the US, warning against blaming Jewish Americans for the actions of Israel's government. Schumer described the spiking antisemitism as a '5-alarm fire' and urged Americans to denounce antisemitism. He emphasized the disparity between how Jewish people and non-Jewish individuals regard the rise of antisemitism. Schumer also confronted fellow liberals and pro-Palestinian demonstrators over antisemitism. His impassioned Senate speech highlighted the deep fear and isolation felt by Jewish people in the face of antisemitism, particularly since the Hamas attack on Israel. The speech received praise from Mitch McConnell and was described as 'powerful' and 'extraordinary.' Schumer also warned against unknowingly aiding and abetting antisemitism in the name of social justice. He cautioned that antisemitism in the US has reached levels unseen in generations.
